Title: State Practices of Personal Commemoration in Post-Soviet Russia (Based on the Materials of the Executive Orders of the President of the Russian Federation)
Abstract: The article considers various practices of Russian personal commemoration that have received support at the state level and are represented in the executive orders of the President of Russia. Post-Soviet commemorative practices are compared with similar practices of the late USSR. It is shown that in modern Russia there is no rigid memorial canon, characteristic of the late USSR. It is concluded that the study of these practices shows that the modern Russian policy of memory is less regulated than the policy of memory in the USSR, and represents the contradictory attitude of society towards the previous eras of Russian history.
